Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: 飞牛 at none against APTV's 1. APTV's advantage is chart position (#6 vs unranked) and ratings volume (729 vs 115). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. APTV sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. 飞牛 asks for nothing beyond the download.
飞牛 holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: APTV has 729 ratings behind it against 115, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 76% of APTV's written reviews are positive against 73% of 飞牛's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
APTV ships an update fortnightly, 飞牛 every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
